I'd take Van Persie off tbh.

RVP off Kagawa on.

 

[Broder Salsa]

I love how Mata is barely a part of Uniteds play, bought him just to stick him on the wing and extend Rooney contract so he can be shit in the middle.

 

[Wilbur]

Observations:

- Quite enjoyed the game, there's a nice pace and energy to it even if not too many chances. Some good blood and thunder tackles going in.

- Liverpool have way too much pace for us. Sturridge finding so much space and Henderson and Allen untroubled all game apart from when Fellaini pushes onto them.

- We should move Rooney out wide and Mata infield to protect the full backs and midfield but Moyes is too scared of bruising Rooney's ego.

- Jones, Fellaini and (besides the stupid fucking handball which he might be lucky to still be on the pitch for) Rafael our best players, probably in that order.

- Rooney's passing has been awful. Genuinely, the fucking balls and accuracy Moyes would show in getting him off for Welbeck would delight me but it isn't going to happen.

 

[Linius]

Loool, I love Fox Sports. They use a clip to advertise for the Arsenal - Chelsea game with voice clips of Mou going on about Wenger being a failure

Moyes has no plan.

 

[K1LLER7]

Mata shoot ffs.

 

[PowderedToast]

lol

most keepers should be saving that

yes, from the other angle it looked more ordinary

 

[Jarnet87]

Him and Rooney just do not work. Wouldn't even mind if RVP left in the summer.

Sturridge and Suarez are the perfect example of how a top 2 should work.

Welbeck was warming up, he's coming on.............




For Januzaj.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Welbeck was warming up, he's coming on.............




For Januzaj.

Not like Januzaj is doing fuck all.

 

[jesalr]

I get what Van Persie was saying about people 'in his zone.' Nobody seems to be showing for the ball a little further back, nobody behind the box trying to carve. Everyone for United is already in the box waiting for the ball.

 

[pappe]

Has Carrick done anything at all?

I mean Fellaini is having to do all the work in the midfield. Closing players. Making runs. Stopping attacks.

 

[Walshy]

I'd take Sterling off and throw on Coutinho and make Henderson press higher up.

Coutinho could really open United's defense from a deeper role.

 

[K1LLER7]

RVP off.

Shinji on.

Rooney up top.

Moyes pls.

 

[GorillaJu]

Suarez not getting in dangerous areas yet. Playing as a false nine at the moment. Would like to see us put Coutinho in for Allen around the hour mark and play 4-1-4-1.

 

[Fergie]

Wish Rooney wasn't playing in the middle. He just isn't capable there.



Rooney and RVP worked last season. Moyes destroying everything he touches.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Performance overall: Good
Decision not to send Rafael off: Rubbish
Decision to book Gerrard for winning a headed duel: Rubbish
Flanagan's intelligence in when to tackle, when to hold and when to foul: Needs work
Performance since goal: Needs work
Skrtel: Great so far
Composure on the ball: Could do with keeping it simple more. Intricately passing our way into trouble too often

 

[Yen]

Sterling at RB and Johnson at LB could be an option. Would get Coutinho (or Lucas) on the pitch without sacrificing one of our midfield players.

 

[doicare]

Are people even watching the same game? There's been nothing in it, 51% United possession to Liverpool's 49% and 7 United shots to Liverpool's 6, yet surprise, surprise United are behind.

 

[Ashes]

Has Carrick done anything at all?

I mean Fellaini is having to do all the work in the midfield. Closing players. Making runs. Stopping attacks.

It's actually the opposite. Most of the off the ball work is done by Carrick. It's the wide men that are the problem. Not close enough to their central midfielders.

 

[pappe]

Wish Rooney wasn't playing in the middle. He just isn't capable there.

He should play as a striker and Mata Kagawa and Adnan behind him.

 

[Feorax]

Cause Rafael thinks he's playing rugby.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Please, don't start with doicare.

He should play as a striker and Mata Kagawa and Adnan behind him.

Kagawa is dead. Just accept it.

 

[sohois]

I think Liverpool need to get Stirling left to pin back Rafael, who is the main danger. Switch to the defensive 4-4-2 which Liverpool have deployed in the past

 

[pappe]

Kagawa is dead. Just accept it.

No, you.

 

[Baki]

United has been the better team.

 

[brokenbeans]

Here we go....

 

[GorillaJu]

I think Liverpool need to get Stirling left to pin back Rafael, who is the main danger. Switch to the defensive 4-4-2 which Liverpool have deployed in the past

Yep, Agreed. I prefer to put Sturridge on the other wing and play 4-1-4-1 for the extra body in midfield, though.

 

[Arnie]

United have been fucking pants and we're only one up.

That frightens me.

 

[Wilbur]

No, Rooney should be the first to come off because all he's done is give the ball away all game and encroach in positions where there are players that are better in those positions.

 

[Feorax]

Another record broken;

@EPLBible: That penalty was the first time Manchester United have conceded a penalty at Old Trafford since 2011.

 

[K1LLER7]

Adnan better on the right.

Rooney should move up top. RVP off.

 

[Tc91]

Fuck bringing Kagawa on. We have enough penetration with Rooney/Adnan/Mata and overlaps from our full backs.

Game needs Welbz.

 

[Mr.Marston]

United has been the better team.

Nah.

 

[MrPing1000]

Gnev notices the problem 5mins into the game.

half time and Moyes hasn't done anything to correct it other than swapping mata and januzaj

Take off RvP put Rooney on the Left, Wellbeck upfront with Mata behind.

Or even take Carrick off for Valencia.

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

This is your best one yet.

 

[L1NETT]

Suppose you always take that risk with Adnan and Mata that you aren't the most defensively compact.

With that forward line you would expect Mig to be tested a helluva lot more.

 

[Fergie]

Nothing in it apart from that stupid pen.

 

[Wilbur]

Fuck bringing Kagawa on. We have enough penetration with Rooney/Adnan/Mata and overlaps from our full backs.

Game needs Welbz.

Exactly. Welbeck for Rooney. We'll never see it because Moyes is his fucking bitch.

Fucking cock.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Are people even watching the same game? There's been nothing in it, 51% United possession to Liverpool's 49% and 7 United shots to Liverpool's 6, yet surprise, surprise United are behind.

Neither of those stats matter. Liverpool had the better opportunities and the better play overall.

 

[everthustodeadbeats]

I won't be at ease without a 2 goal lead. A ref's decision can give away 2 points just like that.

 

[Wilbur]

Rafael is so so lucky to be on the pitch. shame because he's actually been very good and had no options out wide to help him.

 

[Slizz]

Another record broken;

Thats considered a 'record'?

Januzaj looks so much better on the right, which is basically what everyone was saying during the WBA game.

Rafa is a moron, Fergie would be able to reign him in. Don't think Moyes can.

 

[doicare]

Here we go....

This is your best one yet.

Ah yes logical points totally proving me wrong there.........

 

[Linius]

Hi doicare babe, how you doing today?

 

[tri_willy]

Performance overall: Good
Decision not to send Rafael off: Rubbish

Flanagan's intelligence in when to tackle, when to hold and when to foul: Needs work

job half done thus far...will need to continue to put in the effort next half and make it impossible for united to come back into the game

 

[Into]

Milanlol

No way Balo stays after this season, i just do not see it, yet who would want such a moody player? Someone i am sure...

 

[Baki]

I feel so dirty supporting United. :/

 

[Wilbur]

Guys you know better to respond to that mentally incapacitated shrub

 

[L1NETT]

Also agree with Collymore that either play Mata at 10 or don't play him at all.

Adnan right and Rooney left should be from the get go personally.

Rooney far more defensively capable

 

[Wilbur]

Dreams

Welbeck for Rooney
Mata infield

Reality

Welbeck for anyone else, he'd bring De Gea off and put Welbz in goal before he took the fat cunt off
